Needing Help Getting Started with PE Builder 3.0.32
Hi Everyone:
As directed from a previous post, I downloaded and installed PE Builder 3.0.32. The instructions indicated to double click on the pebuilder.exe file after all files and folders were extracted. When I double-click on the pebuilder.exe file, I get a window with the following questions: Path to Windows installations files: and Add files/folders from (custom) directory. I "assume" for part one of two, I type in the drive letter corresponding to my cdrom with the XP Pro Installation CD in it and type windows\setup or d:\windows\setup. But, I am really unsure. With regards to the other half of the question within the window, I am totally unclear what to type here.
In closing, I am impressed with the reviews of PE Builder and excited about getting started with this tool. Any help on this post will be most appreciated.
Thank you.
George

Hi
I directed the program to c:\windows, but, I got the following error message: c:\windows\i386\setupldr.b
I looked for the i386 folder within the windows directory, but, could not locate it.

Hi Everyone:
Before I begin with the feedback to this post, I want to thank everyone for their indulgence to the delay. Much has been going on in my personal and work life which has been demanding at best. In any case, I just wanted to explain myself here.
With regards to the feedback, I believe enough information is supplied here to give me a good start. I especially appreciate the followup provided by tosh9iii. The detailed outline is exactly what I need because I am a new user of PE Builder 3.0.32. Once things start slowing down at work, I resume trying to figure out this exciting utility.
Once again, please accept my humble apologies because of the delay in providing feedback and closure to this post. As always, I found everyone's responses cogent and easy to understand.
Thanks again for simplying everything for me.

Thanks for the followup. Is it possible to make a copy of PE Builder from a good working system and using it on another system with a different hardware profile and OS?
